The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by GrahamSkan in Windows 2000 Operating System, Windows XP Operating System, Computer Hard Drives
I have been running this system for some years. After some hiccups with my Windows 2000 IDE system drive, I decided to run from an existing 2000 system already on the second IDE 2000 on the machine. However, although the BIOS reports them, the SATA drives (a mirrored set) are not seen by windows.
I tried rebuilding a replacement Windows 2000 system from scratch. I also went back to the original problem system drive. Neither of those helped
I have a spare, rarely-used system with the same motherboard, and have tried swapping all the drives into it. I have tried running with the XP system disc from the second system. I tested with a third SATA drive to replace the original two. The problem remains
For the record the motherboards are Optronix OP-K9A200G-MLF. It uses an ATI RS480 chipset. SATA functionality is via a Silicon Image controller. Each CPUi an AMD Athlon 64.
